2023-07-14rcutorture: Remove obsolete parameter check from mkinitrd.shPaul E. McKenney
The mkinitrd.sh script no longer takes an argument, so this commit therefore removes the code that checks for the parameter being present. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@kernel.org>
2023-07-14torture: Make kvm-remote print diagnostics on initial ssh failurePaul E. McKenney
Currently, if the initial ssh fails, kvm-remote.sh gives up, printing a message saying so. But it would be nice to get a better idea as to why ssh failed. This commit therefore dumps out ssh's exit code, stdout, and stderr upon ssh failure for diagnostic purposes. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14torture: Add RCU Tasks individual-flavor build testsPaul E. McKenney
This commit adds build tests of the individual RCU Tasks flavors in order to detect inadvertent dependencies among the flavors. Reported-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14torture: Make kvm-recheck.sh report .config errorsPaul E. McKenney
Currently, kvm-recheck.sh will print out any .config errors with messages of the form: :CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU=y: improperly set However, if these are the only errors, the resulting exit code will declare the run successful. This commit therefore causes kvm-recheck.sh to record .config errors in the results directory in a file named ConfigFragment.diags and also returns a non-zero error code in that case. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14torture: Allow #CHECK# in --kconfig argument to kvm.shPaul E. McKenney
Testing building of a given RCU Tasks flavor with the other two flavors disabled requires checking that the other two flavors are in fact disabled. This commit therefore modifies the scripting to permit things like "#CHECK#CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU=n" to be passed into the kvm.sh script's --kconfig parameter. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14rcutorture: Remove contradictory Kconfig constraintPaul E. McKenney
The TASKS03 scenario specifies both CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT=y and removes #CHECK#CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT=n in order to be consistent with CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT=y prerequisites. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14torture: Add "--no-" as synonym for "--do-no-" in torture.shPaul E. McKenney
In order to (for example) omit the real-time testing that torture.sh would otherwise carry out, you put "--do-no-rt" on the torture.sh command line. This works, but it is all too easy to instead type "--no-rt". This is unambiguous and easier to type, so this commit therefore allows all "--no-" arguments as synonyms for their "--do-no-" counterparts. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14rcu: Remove formal-verification testsPaul E. McKenney
The CBMC-based formal-verification testing for SRCU was quite the thing back in 2016, but the problem is that SRCU changes too quickly for the scripting to keep up. In addition, more recently, SRCU's grace-period ordering has been formally modeled by a group of Linux-kernel memory-model litmus tests. This commit therefore removes the pioneering formal-verification tests. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14rcutorture: Remove obsolete BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 Kconfig optionPaul E. McKenney
Now that the BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 Kconfig option is in the process of being removed, it is time to remove rcutorture's use of it.

2023-07-14scftorture: Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n to NOPREEMPT scenarioPaul E. McKenney
It is no longer possible to build a kernel with a preemption-disabled RCU without use of CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n. This commit therefore adds CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n to the scf torture type's NOPREEMPT scenario file. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14torture: Scale scftorture memory based on number of CPUsPaul E. McKenney
As the number of CPUs increases, the number of outstanding no-wait smp_call_function() handlers also increases, so that the default of 2G of memory is not always sufficient on 80-CPU systems. This commit therefore scales the amount of memory specified to qemu based on the number of CPUs specified to the scftorture test instance. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2023-07-14rcuscale: Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n to TRACE01 scenarioPaul E. McKenney

2022-10-18rcutorture: Make kvm-recheck.sh export TORTURE_SUITEPaul E. McKenney
As it should, the kvm-recheck.sh script sets the TORTURE_SUITE bash variable based on the type of rcutorture test being run. However, it does not export it. Which is OK, at least until you try running kvm-again.sh on either a rcuscale or a refscale test, at which point you get false-positive "no success message, N successful version messages" errors. This commit therefore causes the kvm-recheck.sh script to export TORTURE_SUITE, suppressing these false positives. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2022-10-18rcutorture: Make kvm-test-1-run-qemu.sh check for alternative outputPaul E. McKenney

2022-10-18torture: Use mktemp instead of guessing at unique namesPaul E. McKenney
This commit drags the rcutorture scripting kicking and screaming into the twenty-first century by making use of the BSD-derived mktemp command to create temporary files and directories.

2022-10-18rcutorture: Add --bootargs parameter to kvm-again.shPaul E. McKenney
The kvm-again.sh script can be used to repeat short boot-time tests, but the kernel boot arguments cannot be changed. This means that every change in kernel boot arguments currently necessitates a kernel build, which greatly increases the duration of kernel-boot testing. This commit therefore adds a --bootargs parameter to kvm-again.sh, which allows a given kernel to be repeatedly booted, but overriding old and adding new kernel boot parameters. This allows an old kernel to be booted with new kernel boot parameters, avoiding the overhead of rebuilding the kernel under test. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2022-06-21torture: Create kvm-check-branches.sh output in proper locationPaul E. McKenney
Currently, kvm-check-branches.sh causes each kvm.sh invocation create a separate date-stamped directory, then after that invocation completes, moves it into the *-group/NNNN directory. This works, but makes it more difficult to monitor an ongoing run. This commit therefore uses the kvm.sh --datestamp argument to make kvm.sh put the output in the right place to start with, and also dispenses with the additional level of datestamping. (Those wanting datestamps can find them in the log files.) Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2022-06-21torture: Adjust to again produce debugging informationPaul E. McKenney
A recent change to the DEBUG_INFO Kconfig option means that simply adding CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y to the .config file and running "make oldconfig" no longer works. It is instead necessary to add CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_NONE=n and (for example) CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT=y. This combination will then result in CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO being selected. This commit therefore updates the Kconfig options produced in response to the kvm.sh --gdb, --kasan, and --kcsan Kconfig options.

2022-06-20torture: Make kvm-remote.sh announce which system is being waited onPaul E. McKenney
If a remote system fails in certain ways, for example, if it is rebooted without removing the contents of the /tmp directory, its remote.run file never will be removed and the kvm-remote.sh script will loop waiting forever. The manual workaround for this (hopefully!) rare event is to manually remove the file, which will cause the results up to the reboot to be collected and evaluated. Unfortunately, to work out which system is holding things up, the user must refer to the name of the last system whose results were collected, then look up the name of the next system in sequence, then manually remove the remote.run file. Even more unfortunately, this procedure can be fooled in runs where each system handles more than one batch should a given system take longer than expected, causing the systems to be handled out of order. This commit therefore causes kvm-remote.sh to print out the name of the system it will wait on next, allowing the user to refer directly to that name. Making the kvm-remote.sh script automatically handle unscheduled termination of the qemu processes is left as future work. Quite possibly deep future work. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2022-04-20rcutorture: Make torture.sh allow for --kasanPaul E. McKenney
The torture.sh script provides extra memory for scftorture and rcuscale. However, the total memory provided is only 1G, which is less than the 2G that is required for KASAN testing. This commit therefore ups the torture.sh script's 1G to 2G. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
2022-04-20rcutorture: Make torture.sh refscale and rcuscale specify Tasks Trace RCUPaul E. McKenney
Now that the Tasks RCU flavors are selected by their users rather than by the rcutorture scenarios, torture.sh fails when attempting to run NOPREEMPT scenarios for refscale and rcuscale. This commit therefore makes torture.sh specify CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU=y to avoid such failure. Why not also CONFIG_TASKS_RCU? Because tracing selects this one. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
